With glitz, glamour and gloriously dramatic dresses, the 2016 Emmy Awards red carpet was a feast for the eyes. Prepare to be inspired by the top trends from TV's biggest night and don't forget to vote for your favorite look.

Fall florals

Autumn probably isn't the first season to come to mind when you think of flowery patterns. Yet, as these red carpet beauties prove, florals can be a great fall look. To try it yourself, look for thicker fabrics, embroidery or beads to make it feel more substantial and less springlike.

Suddenly sheer ... with polka dots!

A trend that works for women of all ages? That's a look we can get behind! Sheer panels with a hint of polka dots popped up on several dresses on the red carpet.
